CWN Editor's Note: The meeting took place on May 4, two days before the swearing-in of new recruits for the Pontifical Swiss Guard. The Swiss Federal Department of Foreign Affairs stated, “In their foreign policy, [Switzerland and the Holy See] have many points in common, especially in the areas of humanitarian aid and the promotion of peace, and in efforts to abolish the death penalty.”
